2 Responses to CDNews: To thank US for 2011 tsunami relief, Japanese man is biking up West Coast cleaning up trash

Thanks for posting this event, Tom. I had the chance to attend, and was blown away by Ambe-san’s enthusiasm and earnest desire to share the gratitude of the Japanese people for the support the US and the rest of the world in the wake of the 3/11 disasters. He will complete his latest trip from San Diego to Vancouver, BC soon; but has already ridden across Canada, New Zealand and Taiwan.
